About this listen
Virtual worlds are places of boundless freedom. Anyone can become an elven mage or an invisible rogue, join a clan, and go on raids, fight, develop their characters, and most importantly, escape from the daily grind.
However, a game is only a game if you can quit. This is something I learned the hard way. I just wanted to let off some steam in virtual reality and ended up getting murdered and imprisoned in the body of one of the undead - slow, clumsy, and cursed to die at the hand of other players over and over again.
The only way out of this awful predicament was to find the legendary Scroll of Rebirth, but the helpless plague-ridden corpse would need to be turned into a real killing machine. If only people knew what it was like to level up a dead rogue....

It’s ok…ish
It has a very interesting plot premise however it does need more character development as the main character seems to be rather emotionless and we don’t really learn a lot about him. It has a really interesting world in which to adventure in but it feels like the main character does not make the most of it. We are also not given a lot of information about details in the world. On the other side a nice character building ,(even though he can’t enjoy it for very long), development and interesting in game items. Worth a listen ,(at the time of this review it is free), interesting plot but not one of the better RPG books, still ok. Thank you for reading my review.

Interesting but could be better.
The story is about a person who got stuck in a online virtual reality game. He was on his character but somehow that got turned into an npc. Also since it's an online game, it'd can be quite tedious to listen through levels, quest, mission/etc.
oh yeah it's first perspective too with the MC internal dialogue of him going through survival and for some reason people are looking to harm him but atm we haven't given any a good reason too.

Good concept but can be a bit tedious to follow
I enjoyed the first half but it got a bit forced half way. A bit more into the irl side of things would have been nice

Got bored of this
I got bored of this after that first maybe half. The performance is really lacklustre and in all honesty the story is tedious. It keeps jumping for one place to the next too. In summary this is boring AF, thank god I didn’t waste a credit on it.
